I don't think it is going to happen. Don't get me wrong, I hope you do but it takes time to get the car all dialed in. You just can't slap a cam in throw on some slick. Install a 12 bolt and think you are going to run 10's. I say 11.35 -11.40 maybe if you are lucky.

What were the actual dyno numbers?

430rw is definately good enough for me ... just that 455 would have been abit better.

I installed my T-Rex. Put it this way, the car sounds like a 9 second solid roller motor. Amazing man. When my car is tuned we are gonna post video's, dyno #'s and all. The tuning is key but even with 3.42 gears I can cruise @ 1,600 rpm without any bucking, idle on hot/cold starts is fine I leave from a dead stop by keeping the rpm's @ 1,000 then giving it gas to keep it rolling.
I could keep the 3.42's, the cam is very street friendly.

if i get 400-410 from my th400 car with 4000 stall, im gonna be silly!
then see what the 250 direct does to it.....
maybe it will not only sound like a 9 sec solid roller, but run like one!

I am wondering if it will be more street friendly than my 236/240 is. Mine is on an XE-R Lobe. Are these lobes as radical? How much valve train noise do you have with the T-Rex?
